CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This is a U.S. national stage of application No. PCT/CN2019/080925, filed on Apr. 2, 2019, Priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(a) and 35 U.S.C. § 365(b) is claimed from Chinese Patent Application No. 201810290173.X, filed on Apr. 3, 2018, and entitled, “METHOD AND DEVICE FOR INDICATING PT-RS PORT FOR NON-CODEBOOK-BASED UPLINK PUSCH TRANSMISSION, AND BASE STATION”, the entire disclosure of which is also incorporated herein by reference.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure generally relates to wireless communication technology field, and more particularly, to a method and a device for indicating PT-RS port for non-codebook-based uplink PUSCH transmission, and a base station.

BACKGROUND

Non-codebook-based Uplink Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) transmission is supported in 5G New Radio (NR), and it includes the following three steps: (1) a base station conFIG.s and triggers a User Equipment (UE) to send a plurality of single-port Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) resources: (2) the base station instructs the UE through Downlink Control Information (DCI) to use one or more of the plurality of single-port SRS resources to send PUSCH; and (3) the UE sends the PUSCH.

In the step (2), the DCI also indicates which Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS) ports of the PUSCH are mapped to the one or more of the plurality of SRS resources. In particular, if a Phase-Tracking Reference Signal (PT-RS) is configured, the base station also tells which one or ones of the DMRS ports the PT-RS is mapped to.

Referring to FIG. 1, the base station indicates that SRS resource 0 and resource 3 are used for PUSCH transmission, DMRS port 0 and port 2 are used, and DMRS port 0 and port 2 are respectively mapped to SRS resource 0 and resource 3. The DCI may also indicate whether the PT-RS is mapped to DMRS port 0 or port 2.

In addition, when multiple SRS resources is configured, the base station may also indicate a radio frequency link on the SRS resources (by indicating the PT-RS). In this way, when the multiple SRS resources configured with the same PT-RS are used to transmit the PUSCH, only one PT-RS needs to be sent, but which DMRS port that the PT-RS will be sent on, needs to be indicated.

Referring to FIG. 2, the base station configures two SRS resources for the UE and the two SRS resources are associated with two different PT-RSs (which means that the two SRS resources can be sent on different radio frequency links). And the DCI indicates to send the PUSCH by using the two SRS resources and to map DMRS port 0 and port 2 of the PUSCH to the two SRS resources respectively. In this way, there is no need for the DCI to indicate the association relationship between the PT-RSs and the DMRS, because the two PT-RS are respectively mapped to the two corresponding DMRS ports.

Referring to FIG. 3, the base station configures four SRS resources for the UE and the four SRS resources are associated with different PT-RSs, wherein SRS resource 0, resource 2 and resource 3 share a PT-RS (the three SRS resources will be sent through a same radio frequency link), and SRS resource 1 uses another PT-RS (which means it will be sent through a different radio frequency link from the other three SRS resources). And the DCI instructs to send the PUSCH by using SRS resources 0 and 3, and maps DMRS port 0 and port 2 of the PUSCH to the two SRS resources, respectively. Since the two SRS resources share a same radio link (namely, a same PT-RS), the DCI needs to additionally indicate which DMRS port the PT-RS is mapped to.

In the existing solutions, a PTRS-DMRS association in DCI format 0_1 is used to perform the indication, but the association in DCI is designed only for the configuration of one PT-RS port, and how the number of SRS resources will affect indication bits of the association is not taken into account, as shown in Table 1.
